Introduction

Oregon adopted a multi-level approach to measuring the performance and outcomes of state government. The Legislative Fiscal Office and the Budget and Management Division of the Department of Administrative Services adopted a set of criteria that agencies must meet when developing measures. Performance Measures must:

Gauge progress toward agency's goals and mission,

Use standard terminology and definitions,

Be few in number,

Identify performance targets to be achieved during the two year budget cycle,

Use accurate and reliable data sources,

Measure customer satisfaction,

Assign an organizational unit responsible for achieving the target, and,

Address comparable information, where possible.

During the budget deliberation process of each legislative session, the Legislature will approve, disapprove, or change/update each agency's proposed biennial performance measures.

Annual Performance Progress Report (APPR)

Each year agencies submit an Annual Performance Progress Report (APPR) to the Legislative Fiscal Office. The report provides detailed analysis of the agency Key Performance Measures and includes the following for each measure.

For these yearly reports, agency reporting timelines may differ depending on their Key Performance Measures (KPMs). If an agency does not submit an updated report by December 31st, it will be listed as Unreported in the tables below, until the report is received. For additional information about specific agency reports, please contact the agency directly through their website link provided below.
